EXACTLY! Equity is the only solution. I'm still in the dark on how long it would take to implement "restructuring" & "true federalism" but from all indications that's the only option for the country to have long term peace and progress. People are getting restless something is gonna have to give.
Well, four out of the 6 regions are now demanding for true fiscal federalism bar the 2 parasite regions Gideon Orkar wanted to cut off during his ill fated coup. The parasites can only extend the date but restructuring or break up is inevitable!

Nobody should listen to them. They are all Arewa family and Igbos pls don't be deceived by letting them attaching themselves to southeast because majority of middle belterners don't like us. Anyway I wish them well

A group, the Middle Belt Alliance (MBA), which claimed to represent the interest of indigenes of Northcentral states, has begun moves for the separation of the region from the North.

It decried the current arrangement where Middle Belt indigenes are grouped with the Hausa-Fulani with the intent to create a façade of one North.

Rising from its inaugural meeting in Makurdi, the Benue State capital, the group said it had resolved, among others, to ensure that the region no longer “plays the second fiddle” and is treated as an equal stakeholder in the Nigerian project.

In a communiqué by its Chairman, Dr. Leonard Shilgba, and Secretary, Comrade Andrew Ayuba Butswat, it urged governors from the region to form the Middle Belt Governors’ Forum and pull out of the present Northern Governors’ Forum.

Faulting the provisions of the 1999 Constitution, the group called for the convocation of a sovereign national conference where a new constitution would be made for Nigeria; where each federating unit would have control of its resources and progress at its pace; where the Constitution would ensure justice and equity.

The group noted that some of the traditional titles borne by certain Middle Belt leaders do not have origins in the Middle Belt and called the people to renounce tradition and practices alien to them.

The communiqué reads: “We must be proud of our culture and the pre-dominant religion (Christianity) of our region. No Islamic theocracy shall be accepted in any part of our territory.

“Any constitutional arrangement that seeks to permit Sharia law implementation in any inch of our territory shall be resisted with all resources at our disposal. Religion is an individual choice to make, and must not be imposed.”

Never saw a Yoraaba condemn far north's unilateral and unconstitutional adoption and practice of Sharia Criminal laws.

Nigeria constitution does not support sharia criminal laws in any part of Nigeria.

Easterners renewed the push for Biafra after far north adapted sharia criminal laws. The SS can't see Sharia in its territory. Now the Middle Belt is kicking against sharia criminal laws.

So where does the SW stand on sharia criminal laws, more so, since there are rumours that Bill to include sharia criminal laws in the constitution is in the National Assembky?
